Pumpkin Seed Flat Breads

Ingredients

1 teaspoon active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
6 tablespoons butter, cubed
1/3 cup cornmeal
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 to 3-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 egg
2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup salted pumpkin seeds or pepitas
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Directions

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the butter,
cornmeal, sugar, chili powder, salt and 1-1/2 cups flour. Beat until
smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about
6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the
top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45
minutes.
Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide in
half. Roll each half into a 14-in. oval. Combine egg and water;
brush over dough. Using a pastry wheel, cut each oval into 12 wedges
